Reviewer Comments:
This condo is clean and updated. Even the TV is Netflix-enabled for a rainy day. We were pleasantly surprised to find that the second bedroom had a full bed and a bunk bed (pictures just showed the full bed), so our daughter got to have a bunk bed sleepover with her friend who was staying with her family in another unit. Other reviews mention the proximity to the pool— it really is just steps away. This led to some noise when guests were returning home after the pool closed, mainly from the second bedroom. It also means this unit is one of the farthest from the beach. I would not recommend staying here with any kind of mobility issue — this unit is for active families who don’t mind a little noise and who can haul beach gear from one end of the Palm Bay Club, across the street, through the rest of the Palm Bay Club, and to the beach. That said, we enjoyed our stay but on a return trip, we would book earlier in hopes of securing a unit closer to the beach/across the street. Boogie boards, coolers, and 2 chairs were provided. A wagon would’ve been awesome. Our friends stayed in a unit a few doors up, and their hosts provided a slew of treats and goodies; that made us a little jealous. But their condo was not as updated and given the choice, I’d pick this one. This condo is also keyless, which led to a lot of confusion at checkout (“Where is your key??”). Ending on a positive, they provided tons of clean towels, the sheets were crisp white and so clean, and the mattresses appeared brand new. Thanks!
